Synopsis

This book is a highly visual and informative introduction to the design potential of concrete, revealing how it can be used intelligently to create outstanding contemporary architecture. It combines an inspirational overview of concrete architecture with a level of detail more usually found in engineering and construction textbooks, making it the perfect companion for use in the studio. Alongside guidance on a range of key issues, designers will find accessibly-presented technical content that can be used to inform a project specification. It also attempts to contribute to tackling climate change in a world where over half the human population now lives in cities. It helps to provide attractive, yet affordable and durable architecture that people want to live and work in, and guidance on climate adaptation, energy efficiency, and low carbon concrete.
